After more than a decade of creating rap music that honors and advances the art, Jason and I have decided to end Educated Consumers.

So many people have been so supportive in so many ways that it would be impossible to thank all of you individually here, so… thank all of you.

The entire Educated Consumers discography is available digitally via Bandcamp. Our last three albums are available on iTunes (please leave a review!) The good people at CrushKill Recordings and Strange Famous Records also carry some goodies. CD’s and vinyl can be purchased by messaging me on the Facebook page. Of course, you’re always encouraged to bootleg music until every artist spirals into poverty and dies a slow, lonely death before reemerging as a horde of zombies more concerned with brains than coins.

For those of you who are still interested in my music/existential ramblings/bad jokes, I will be focusing on the Broken Clock material which can be found via Facebook, Twitter, and Bandcamp.

I’ve never been good at hellos and I’m even worse at goodbyes, so I’ll leave the last words to you in the comments.

The good people of CrushKill Recordings also run the Eyedea (ReyeP) website micheallarsen.com.

They sell Educated Consumers material as well as music and merch from the other CrushKill artists. All the money goes back to the label or to assist Eyedea’s mother in covering costs for the annual dedication shows.

A Vaudeville Presentation of “Big Shots”
Rapping | Breakdancing | Freestyles | Theatre — All united by the common themes of hip-hop culture amongst high schoolers, and inspired by the Eyedea and Abilities song “Big Shots,” an early, all-ages event held at Highland Park Senior High School, Mikey’s alma mater and where he is an inductee in their alumni hall of fame.

Performances by: DJ Abilities, C-Rayz Walz and other unannounced guests from the early 2000′s scene.
